About The IGF

IndieGames.com is presented by the UBM TechWeb Game Network, which runs the Independent Games Festival & Summit every year at Game Developers Conference. The company (producer of the Game Developers Conference series, Gamasutra.com and Game Developer magazine) established the Independent Games Festival in 1998 to encourage innovation in game development and to recognize the best independent game developers.

Simon Roth's upcoming god game has been in development for a while now but this is the first video we've seen of the title. Inspired by 1970's sci-fi, Maia wants its players to figure out how to manage their space-faring colonists and to keep them from being eaten by the denizens of the planet Maia. It probably won't be easy. Not only will you have to build defenses, you're also going to have to keep your people sufficiently fed, watered and entertained. You'll also get bi-polar androids.
